Vaassen

Vaassen ]; Low German: Vaossen) is one of four villages in the Dutch municipality of Epe. Vaassen is situated between Apeldoorn and Zwolle, on the eastern edge of the Veluwe in the province of Gelderland. Vaassen was an independent municipality up to 1 January 1818, when it merged with Epe.The earliest signs of residents in this area are the burial mounds and "Celtic Fields" northwest of Vaassen in the Veluwe, between the Elburgerweg and Gortelseweg. There is a large complex of these fields in Vaassen, around Gortelseweg. The German inhabitants were farmers and lived there during the Roman era. They inhabited wooden huts and lived from agriculture, livestock, cultivation of herbs, and hunting deer and boar.
